Z-Radio is an addon which I created for a voice mod called ModularVoiceChat by Nathanael2611.
The mod adds a physical radio (item) with which you can connect on a frequency.
Z-Radio requires at least the v1.1.1 of ModularVoiceChat!
The mod is only available in 1.12.2 but you can as you wish edit it or port it in another version of Minecraft in which ModularVoiceChat is available.
Configuration part:
There are two config files:
- The .cfg file allows to:
- enable/disable the durability of the radio : the item takes damages by speaking or by helding it (see the .cfg file to more details)
- enable/disable the fact that if you have several connected radios on you, you can hear all of them at the same time. If it sets to false, you can only hear the last radio that you used
- enable/disable the "bypass" of operators. If true, operators can connected on restricted and blacklisted frequencies, else they can't.
What are restricted and blacklisted frequencies?
- This is what is in the second config file, the .json
Contrary to the .cfg, you can edit this config in-game with the /frequencies command.
- Restricted frequencies are frequencies in which nobody can connect unless a permission. The permission is given by executing a command (so an admin can type it or with plugins/mods you can use the command when you want). For instance if a player becomes a police officer, you can give him the permission to join a restricted frequency, but those who have not the permission can't join.
- Blacklisted frequencies are just frequencies which nobody can join.
I let you check the in-game /frequencies help command to see all the details to know how to config restricted or blacklisted frequencies.
If you need more help, I invite you to join the Discord of ModularVoiceChat where I have a channel dedicated to my addon and where you can ask for some help :)
